Geovanny Anacleto Cruz Lopez


Geovanny lives with his mother and two brothers in Honduras Aguan, which is a very poor area outside of Trujillo. Most of the families there live in mud huts with thatch roofs. Geovanny just finished his second year in the Business Administration program. He also hopes to attend college after completing high school.

Hello sponsor,

I hope that you are well along with your friends and family. The motive for writing is to say thanks to you. I am very proud of myself because with my work and your help, I have been able to succeed despite my situation. I will always be thankful to you.

I thank God for putting me in the midst of all the people that even though they are not with me, I ask God to guard them each moment and not abandon them. I am very grateful to you, sponsor. I can never repay you for all that you have done for me but let’s remember that God is with us and he knows what we need.

Sponsor, may God bless you today and always.

To: My sponsors

With affection and much respect for you all, my sponsors.
In my studies, I hope to do the best that I can so that you will feel proud of me and never forget about me. I live with my mother and my sister. We are poor. If you could continue to help me, I would be very appreciative. I will pray that you will always have good health and I hope in God that you will always remember that I am very affectionately grateful to you. I have the hope that someday I will be able to meet you, if not in person, at least through a photograph.

With respect, I bid you farewell.

Sincerely,

Maylin Valeria Urbina Hernandez
